Do you recall the panic that erupted last year over our phones being taken over by the federal government? It appears that they intend to carry out that action once more. Everybody's TV, radio, cell phone, and other devices sent out an alert simultaneously with a TEST last year.

The first thing many people ask, is WHY DOES THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NEED ACCESS TO OUR CELL PHONES? It certainly feels like the feds already have access to almost everything we do or say on or around our phones. It's like when you're talking about making spaghetti, and an ad pops up on your Social Media that states "Here are the 35 best ways to make spaghetti." Just seems a bit suspicious at that point.

The National EAS TEST was a test that was distributed by the federal government back in 2023. If my memory serves me well, the 2023 EAS Test was highly notable because, among other things, people were going crazy on social media about the test turning them become zombies. (HAHA)

WHAT IS AN EAS TEST?

The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is a national public warning system commonly used by state and local authorities to deliver important emergency information, such as weather and AMBER alerts, to affected communities.

Well, no zombies, no aliens, none of that business appeared during the EAS Test. Crazy enough, it was said that a lot of people didn't actually get the test or even notice it for that matter.

The FEMA states that the 2023 test might not be the final one. It appears that they are currently delving into the test's outcomes.

The purpose of the tests, according to FEMA, is to "ensure that systems continue to be effective means of warning the public about emergencies, particularly those on a national level."

A second nationwide test is anticipated to occur this year or the following, however the precise date is still unknown. It looks like 2024 or 2025 will be the year of the next national public alert and warning system, depending on the outcomes of the 2023 EAS Test.
